摘要:
目的 为探讨老年性痴呆患者的睡眠障碍问题,本研究对比耳穴疗法联合艾司唑仑与单一应用耳穴疗法、单一应用艾司唑仑的应用效果,并探究3种方式对患者睡眠结构、认知功能及相关血清学指标水平的影响,以期为临床治疗老年性痴呆并睡眠障碍提供新思路。 方法 选取2024年1月—2025年3月宁波大学附属第一医院收治的120例老年性痴呆并睡眠障碍患者,采用简单随机化分组法分为耳穴A组(上午刺激0.5 h)、耳穴B组(下午刺激0.5 h)、艾司唑仑组、联合组(耳穴疗法联合艾司唑仑),各30例,比较4组睡眠结构、认知功能、血褪黑素(MT)、皮质醇(COR)、5-羟色胺(5-HT)水平及不良反应。 结果 治疗后联合组的觉醒指数(AI)低于另外三组,睡眠效率指数(SEI)、快速眼动睡眠时间(REM)占总睡眠时间(TST)百分比高于另外三组(P<0.05);治疗后联合组MMSE评分[(23.78±1.20)分]高于另外三组[(19.65±1.15)分、(19.70±1.08)分、(16.36±1.42)分, F=219.809,P<0.001];治疗后联合组MT、5-HT水平高于另外三组,COR水平低于另外三组(P<0.001);4组不良反应发生率比较差异无统计学意义(P=0.309)。 结论 耳穴疗法联合艾司唑仑有利于提升患者睡眠质量、改善认知功能以及调节MT、COR、5-HT水平,可用于老年性痴呆并睡眠障碍患者的治疗。 Abstract:Objective To address sleep disorders in patients with senile dementia, this study compared the therapeutic effects of auricular therapy combined with estazolam versus auricular therapy or estazolam monotherapy, and investigated the effects of the three treatment methods on sleep architecture, cognitive function, and relevant serological indicators, aiming to provide new insights for clinical treatment of senile dementia complicated with sleep disorders. Methods A total of 120 patients with senile dementia and sleep disorders admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Ningbo University from January 2024 to March 2025 were selected and randomly divided into the auricular therapy group A (30-min stimulation in the morning), the auricular therapy group B (30-min stimulation in the afternoon), the estazolam group, and the combination group (auricular therapy combined with estazolam), with 30 cases in each group. Sleep architecture, cognitive function, serum levels of melatonin (MT), cortisol (COR), and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), as well as adverse reactions, were compared across the four groups. Results After treatment, the combination group showed a lower arousal index (AI) and higher sleep efficiency index (SEI) and percentage of rapid eye movement (REM) sleep time to total sleep time (TST) compared with the other three groups (P < 0.05). After treatment, the mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score of the combination group (23.78±1.20) was higher than those of the other three groups (19.65±1.15, 19.70±1.08, 16.36±1.42, F=219.809, P < 0.001). After treatment, MT and 5-HT levels in the combination group were higher than those in the other three groups, while COR level was lower than those in the other three groups (P < 0.001). No statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions was observed among the four groups (P=0.309). Conclusion Auricular therapy combined with estazolam effectively improves sleep quality, enhances cognitive function, and modulates MT, COR, and 5-HT levels, making it a promising treatment for patients with senile dementia and sleep disorders. -
